I've been thinking about this myself, a great list here. Only missing song that came to mind was Beetles "Tax Man". Read the post and add your own.

Great List!

Gotta add 16 Tons by Ernie Ford.

16 Tons - Nice find. I forget how it starts but can probably sing the whole thing once I get started. "I owe my soul to the company store." Great stuff. SD definitely too young for it! LOL.

OK, let's add to the list...

Which song has "I ain't got no money, honey" in it?

Which has "It's going to take money, a whole lot of spending money" in it?

How about "people out there turning music into gold"?

And can you remember who sang "If you've got anything to say to me, you can say it in cash"?

And "a rich old man and she won’t have to worry"?

And can anyone recall who asked “Is that all you get for your money?"

There are also plenty of other songs about being broke... "King of the road", "Living on a prayer", etc. and about being unemployed "Born in the USA" and "Johnny 99" by Springsteen, for example. And "Summertime Blues", "poor side of town" and Boomtown Rats' "Rat trap".

There was also a very good song by Sy Band "Who's gonna give us the money" (from Montreal).

I am sure we could make this list 100 songs long.

100 songs easy peasy, of course I am willing to bet most of the ones you have listed there aren't recent enough to hit my radio on a regular basis.

Someone just tweeted me "I want Money, that's what I want".
